This role offers a mix of onsite and remote work and is geared toward someone with deep hands-on experience in AWS (ECS/Fargate), modern DevOps tools, and CI/CD automation in large-scale environments.

You'll be expected to hit the ground running, lead DevOps initiatives, and drive infrastructure automation efforts.

This is a fast-paced environment where your AWS expertise and DevOps leadership will directly support agile application delivery at scale.
